Thick & Thin (BWWM)

Chapter 1:Excuse Me?

JUSTICE

  "Wake up, Babycakes. It's time to get up." My Daddy's voice boomed up the stairs to my room, instantly taking me out of a random dream. I never know what my dreams are when I wake up unless they feel incredibly crazy.

  " I'm up, Daddy." I instantly pulled back the covers and  felt fluffy slippers meet the soles of my feet. Mmm. I walked into my double sink bathroom that was connected to my bedroom. I brushed my teeth, flat-ironed my hair, even though it was permed,and decided to put my hair in a bun. 

  I took a shower before I went to bed the night before, and I still felt fresh, so there was need for one. I walked to my closet and tapped my finger on my chin thinking of what I should wear. After a minute of thinking, I decided on a jean skirt, maroon sweater and Bobs, and and a yellowish scarf and beanie. Casual & cute. Can't get any better than that.

   I walked downstairs to eat breakfast with Daddy and my little brother, Jordan. Sometimes, I feel that Jordan is the reason to wake up. His smile and dimples are contagious and he makes me feel important. You see, my mom left us three years ago. He's only eight years old and he's in the stage where he asks so many questions and it's so adorable. 

  "Justice? " His mouth was full of Honey Bunches of Oats and his big hazel eyes innocently looked up at me ready to fire away some questions.

  "Yes?" My voice was questioning and I tried not to sound too hopeful.

   "Where do babies come from?" I instantly choked on the orange juice I was drinking and looked at my Daddy with pleading eyes. My Dad quickly spoke up before I could say anything.

   "When did you start thinking about this,son?" One of his eyebrows were raised and he looked as if he was going to die.

   " I don't know. It just came in my head, I think." He was looking at his cereal as if it was a hard math problem. 

   " I'll tell you one day, but I don't think you're ready for that one just yet, okay, J Bear?"  I could tell he loved his nickname because he smiled every time I said it.

   " Kay Kay Jussy." He giggled and went back to his cereal completely devouring it in five minutes. My dad walked in the kitchen and dramatically pretended to wipe sweat off his forehead. I giggled and finished off my cereal. After breakfast, I said bye to the two men in my life and  drove to school in my red Lamborghini. 

   Yes,Honey! We do it big!

 "Nobody Love" by Tori Kelly played in the background and I couldn't help but sing along. As the song ended, I arrived at Oakwood High School. I took a deep breath and started to walk in. I instantly walked to my locker and got my AP History book for 1st Hour. 

   As I was strolling down the long corridor, I knocked into a hard surface, that was warm---with leveled breathing. 

"Aye, watch where you're going!" The voice was deep and harsh. Who do they think they're talking to ?I may be Pentecostal, but that doesn't give anyone the right to talk to me any kind of way.

"Excuse me?" My eyes instantly met another pair of brown eyes. Tobias, of course. The playboy of the school, out of all people bumped into me. God, why? The biggest jerk. Looking at him up close, he really isn't even that good-looking. His eyes are too big, his lips are too small, and  his head structure is out of proportion.

  " Who do you think you're talking to? You must have me mistaken with someone else,sweetheart." He had a satisfied and smug smirk on his face.

   " People always take my kindness for weakness,and you know what? I'm sick of it. Just because I'm Pentecostal doesn't mean I'm a rug you can walk on. What happened to being polite and saying thank you and yes or no sir or ma'am. In fact, if you're going to be rude don't say anything to me." This is my sophomore year, and  ever since I got into high school, people think it's okay to walk all over the nice Pentecostal girl. Well, not anymore! It's time I take a stand!" I was breathing hard through my nose and leveled breathing was out of the question.

   Tobias inched his face VERY close to mine.  " Don't you EVER talk to me like that. No one talks to me like that. NO ONE!" His voice was in a whisper, but his tone was screaming.

"Okay." My voice sounded squeaky and I mentally slapped myself for backing down. He triumphantly smirked. 

"This isn't over, sweetheart." With that statement, he  confidentially walked away. What was I going to do now?
